Abstract :
In this paper, we present a hybrid technique that combines the Synthetic Functions (SFs) method with the MultiLayer Adaptive Integral Method (MLayAIM). The resulting numerical procedure drastically reduces the computational effort needed in the full-wave analysis and optimization of electrically large antennas as reflectarrays and planar arrays with superimposed metallic lenses.
